A low self-image is usually not based upon facts; it's mismanaged memory. ↗

#life

Can you feel the wind/Of Venus on your skin? Can you taste the crush/Of a sunset's dying blush? Stars will always hang/In summer's bleeding vein Seas forever boil/Trees will turn to soil Can you feel the rings/Of Saturn on your fingers? Can you taste the ghosts/Who shed their creaking hosts? Seas forever boil/Trees will turn to soil Stars will always hang/In summer's bleeding vein ↗

That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is. Most people love you for who you pretend to be. To keep their love, you keep pretending - performing. You get to love your pretence. It's true, we're locked in an image, an act - and the sad thing is, people get so used to their image, they grow attached to their masks. They love their chains. They forget all about who they really are. And if you try to remind them, they hate you for it, they feel like you're trying to steal their most precious possession. ↗

It's like I'm thirteen again and he's my crush. All I'm aware of in this entire roomful of people is him. Where he is, what he's doing, who he's talking to. ↗

I believe that love--not imitation--is the sincerest form of flattery. Your imitator thinks that you can be duplicated; your lover knows you can't. ↗
